Symptom narrative

On 7/17/2025 I went to employee health clinic for my N95 Mask fitting and TDAP vaccine. I felt that the nurse gave the injection too high in my left deltoid. Initially, I felt left deltoid pain. On 7/18/25 my left deltoid & arm pain continued with chills. The pain continued on 7/19/25 and 7/20/2025. On 7/21/25 I woke up in excruciating pain in left arm left upper back and I couldn't move my left arm. I had to call off of work due to the left arm and upper back pain and inability to move left arm on 7/21/25. As a result, on 7/21/25 I completed a televisit with a provider that recommended rest, warm/cool compress and over the counter ibuprofen. The pain got worse overnight so on 7/22/25 I went to an urgent care and saw a provider there. I was diagnosed with left arm left upper back spasm and I was prescribed, rest, warm/cool compress, extra strength Ibuprofen and baclofen. The pain continued so I went to a message therapist and chiropractic specialist. The pain and decrease in mobility continued, I went to my primary care on 7/30/2025 and was diagnosed with frozen shoulder, was prescribed mobic for pain, an left upper shoulder US and physical therapy order was placed. Since the TDAP vaccine administration, I have been in continuous left deltoid pain, left arm pain with numbness and tingling, left upper back pain. I have decreased mobility of left arm due to pain. I can't sleep at night due to pain.
